Auto-repeat
Countdown End Beeper
When auto-repeat is turned on, the countdown automatically restarts from the
countdown start time when it reaches zero. If left running, the countdown is repeated
a total of eight times, after which it stops automatically.
The countdown end beeper lets you know when the countdown reaches zero.
• When the progress beeper is turned off, the countdown end beeper sounds for
about 10 seconds, or until you press any button to stop it.
• When the progress beeper is turned on, the countdown end beeper sounds for
about one second.
When auto-repeat is turned off, the countdown stops when it reaches zero and the
display shows the original countdown start time.
• Pressing D while an auto-repeat countdown is in progress pauses the current
countdown. You can resume the auto-repeat countdown by pressing D, or you can
press A to reset to the countdown time starting value.
Progress Beeper
When the progress beeper is turned on, the watch uses beeps to signal countdown
progress as described below.
Countdown Timer Beeper Operations
• Starting from five minutes before the end of the countdown, the watch emits four
short beeps at the top of each countdown minute.
• 30 seconds before the end of the countdown, the watch emits four short beeps.
• The watch emits a short beep for each of the last 10 seconds of the countdown.
• If the countdown start time is six minutes or greater, the watch emits a short beep for
each second of the final 10 seconds before the five-minute point is reached. Four
short beeps are emitted to signal when the five-minute point is reached.
The watch beeps at various times during a countdown so you can keep informed
about the countdown status without looking at the display. The following describes the
types of beeper operations the watch performs during a countdown.

Timekeeping
Reference
• Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59
causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are
reset to 00 without changing the minutes.
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation.
It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and
functions of this watch.
• With the 12-hour format, the P indicator appears on the display for times in the
range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears for times in the range of
midnight to 11:59 a.m.
Auto Return Feature
If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch automatically exits the setting screen.
• With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, without
any indicator.
• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2039.
Scrolling
• The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month
lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change
it except after you have the watch’s batteries replaced.
The B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll
through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll
operation scrolls through the data at high speed.
• The current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode is calculated in
accordance with the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differential of each city, based on
your Home City time setting.
Initial Screens
When you enter the World Time or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing when you
last exited the mode appears first.

• GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Coordinated Universal Time
(UTC) data. UTC is the world-wide scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based
upon carefully maintained atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within
microseconds. Leap seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in
sync with the Earth’s rotation. The reference point for UTC is Greenwich, England.
